New start GG#4 and Pineapple

[FerretWrangler]

Let the good times roll @FerretWrangler ? Grab a few cold beers put on some chilled music and get your trim on! ✂?

I had a tons of errands and its hot enough to cook an egg on the pavement so i was late getting pics. Im gonna grab the gg thats most ready looking and maybe the pineapple tonight. Idk maybe I'll chop them all tonight

 

[Sunshine]

Beautiful stuff my friend! ? That's going to be some fine organic? Good luck with the chopping and trimming ?

Thanks my friend! And I've been told to keep a clean razorblade on hand to scrape my fingers and scissors. I'm going to no glove it because i dont want glove particles in my finger hash lol i guess skin and sweat particles is a bit better since its mine!

 

[FerretWrangler]

Just the 3 tops bits of the first plant. Theres so much left on just this one lady

 

[Sunshine]

Is that a GG or pineapple?? looks good, hows the smell ?

Its the smallest gg. It smells like pine and gas and parmesan! Ive already collected some finger and scissor hash and I'm not even quite done with that lot.

 

[Sunshine]

Sounds good and stinky! ?? Enjoy your scissor and finger hash, I bet the place smells awesome right now ??

 

[FerretWrangler]

I cant even imagine! You reminded me i need to pour out a line of environmentally friendly laundry detergent around the house! It helps mask the scent and is pretty much just a precaution. ?

 

[FerretWrangler]

nice pics. great job.
whats on the right of the trimming scissors a packet that says MYKOS ? whats that ?
the gg sounds amazing...

must stink like fcuk up in there ! lol....I wouldnt have it any other way..

Its a spore packet for the clones I'll hopefully be getting soon. My friend said if he can still get them they're in one gallon pots and are already well established but i will still transplant.

It reeks in my room. Anytime i run to the loo or the kitchen and i come back I'm pretty well assualted by the smell. The gg smells so piney and skunky... almost like i watered it with cola. It's rainy and humid and i dont like dry trim and im keeping fresh frozen for hash so I'm giving a pretty thorough wet trim.
I just snapped some quick pics, i have more in the drawers and i really barely put a dent in the tent!

I grabbed a couple pieces of pineapple too and its smells floral and tropical and sorta sickly sweet.

 

[Sunshine]

Congrats on your harvest! The flowers look superb, I particularly like the look of that GG, beautiful stuff ???

 

[FerretWrangler]

reminds me how fcukin lazy i am ....

assaulted by the smell..... lol.... brilliant ! I remove all cloth or clothes from the wardrobe for that reason- i see you did that also.

got your jars ready ? what humidity do you have in the drying room. these beautys will be delicious slowly dried then jarrred after 7-10 days depending on humidity.

im lazy so i hang the whole plant upside down trim it in the cupboard reminds me there like a bit of a pile of shizzle leaves i must dispose of ...

lol.. fuck it just chuck em out the window at night.... like confetti..

like your style . brutal trim and live hash.

i leave a little sugar leaf like Sunshine however as a change i might do the brutal thing and live hash maybe.
Live hash im very interested in.

looking forward to seeing that ! Lots of pics please.

well happy for you. i hope i get some more chiquita banana indica beans one will have your name on it !


Congratulations on a great crop!

I'll definitely get tons of pics of the live hash when i get around to it. Thanks for the offer, I'd love to give the chiquita a try

The humidity in the closet is at 59% at the moment.

Heres some shots of the pineapple i took down and finished trimming just now.

The pieces in the drawer on stems are gg. I also took the top piece of the pineapple and hung it so there's another large cunk of the main cola not pictured. I broke it all up to avoid mold.

Wise move! Looks delicious ??

Got some nice blonde bubble hash.

 

[Sunshine]

Looks absolutely delicious @FerretWrangler ?

@Sunshine i would like to improve my light and i wanted to hear what you suggest. I can probably come up with 100-300 USD and i was wondering if that would be enough to get a light with better efficiency and lower heat? I would want similar or even more wattage tbh.

Maybe i could get a couple 600w leds? Or a 600w hps hood that is cooled easier. I would like a diy led or cob, or a quantum board but i think they're likely out of my price range.


Next grow im going to scrog from the start. I'll probably do ibs nordes and ibs critical. I planned to get two 7 or 10 gal pots and re use the soil from this grow, though I'd have to till it which is why i got mykos. It'll also give me the opportunity to mix in more fertilizers that were partially depleted and do a slurry test for ppm and ph just for fun. Should i get gypsum, silica, or more perlite? Perlite for added airflow since everythings been packed down and the other two because i see them mentioned in organic grows often and i passed them over this time.

 

[Sunshine]

There are definitely some good options in that price bracket ??

This one draws 530w but it's a bit pricey at 359

This one draws 400w for 229 and would be a reasonable replacement for the 600w

I like the sound of these cobs a couple of these could do the trick. 300w for 130 seems like a fair price.

light with better efficiency and lower heat? I would want similar or even more wattage tbh.

To reduce heat your going to have to run less watts, 600w of hps isn't going to be that much hotter than 600w led. A 400w led would be virtually as efficient as a 600w hps with less heat.

Scrog sounds like a great idea! Good shout getting more mycos after the til, this will be a great grow with the two new strains.
Silica would be an excellent addition and a small amount of perlite while you're topping up your ferts, sounds like a lovely mix.
These bags are huge, you could grow a monster in one of these! You coud do 1 plant scrog one after the other with one massive plant in a 15gallon, either way it's going to be epic!

900W Mars go big !https://www.ebay.com/itm/Mars-II-90...724446&hash=item3385f66a45:g:3x0AAOSwxuhbA~ue


great your doing the IBS Nordes + Critical.

thats some Spanish fire... cream of the crop !

You almost pay a dollar per watt from what it says the power consumption tab i do think i could have a happy middle ground by running the 300w mars i already have alongside that reasonably priced cob @Sunshine mentioned. What do you guys think? I like the idea of doing a single plant in a massive pot one after the other scrog style... i will talk with my gf and formulate a plan.

@InternationalBeanSmuggler both of those beans are potentially high yield and finish fairly quickly right? Cant wait to get everything running again. Which bean would you recommend i pop first if i do one at a time? It will likely be warm and humid here for months to come.

Sounds like a good plan! ?

 

[FerretWrangler]

Sounds amazing love the idea of like a HUGE airpot or even rectangular bed like a bath made into a pot a skip even,, shower replaced with a crazy huge light..

The giant airpot really gets me excited. I can slap the scrog on early and start her growing sideways only and lollipop any lower or larfy stuff during veg. Do you think the critical or the nordes will handle high heat and humidity better?

9 ounces curing, and i had a little less than a half o of bubble hash that I've been dabbing and i made a big pan of scary hash brownies by decarbing 5 or 6 grams of hash and binding it to coconut oil and using that in place of vegetable oil.
